Pete Doherty Jailed

Artist: Babyshambles

Pete Doherty has been jailed for 14 weeks, after a hearing in West London.

The Babyshambles frontman was handed the sentence for "breach of time keeping, non-compliance of his order and using different

drugs"
.

The sentence means Doherty has been forced to postpone a solo appearance at London's Royal Albert Hall, and he may miss his

scheduled headlining slot at the Park Stage at Glastonbury.

A spokesperson for Babyshambles' label, Parlophone, said of the postponement "Peter was very much looking forward to the show

and would like to offer his sincerest apologies to all his fans and to all those concerned."


Drummer Adam Ficek told BBC 6 Music: "I feel gutted for him. Obviously he's going to find it really difficult in there but all I can say is

that the band is going to stick with him as always.

"As far as I see it I hope we can really look positively on this and when he comes out he can learn from the mistakes he's made and we can

persevere with the path that Babyshambles was treading before"
.
